I'm pretty sure I voted there will be when this first popped up but that was because I thought the question was about 2006. That is contingent on Ramsey's play this year as much as it is on the development of Cambell. If he makes similar strides this season like he did at the end of last year, this won't be that big of a deal other than possibly increasing his potential trade value. As others have pointed out, Ramsey is the chosen qb of another coaching shift, and u don't shell out as much as the skins did on Cambell for someone who is going to be a back-up. I wouldn't be suprised to see us trade Ramsey next year if Gibbs trusts Cambell enough, or a cheap, safe veteran qb comes in for one year. There r just too many variables right now to predict the outcome of this at this point. I kind of like the prospect of a young, semi-mobile qb in the mold of Doug Williams being the future qb of the franchise, but I can also live with a stronger armed, slightly more mobile version of Mark Rypien leading the team as well. I am now 100 times more eager to see how the qbs fare in training camp than I was this time last week.

as far as this year, we'll only see Ramsey and if absolutely need be Brunnel on the field this year except in preseason of course.
